So very true

He did not report it to the police. There are camera recordings that would validate his claim and help the police find the perpetrator if true.

Another weirdo from the Dark Side. No respect for the American Flag. He probably moved to Canada in the 1960's and then snuck back when the war was over. This weekend is about the real fallen heroes of our Military. Semper Fi! What an A hole. Sorry for what you had to experience. Not typical of TV.

From a Veteran to a Great Veteran
 
Call the police on this vandal, he has done enough for the police to investigate. When he sees them, I think it might soil his pants. Make sure you tell them who you think did this. And then put everything back up as you had it.

I'm proud you and I both served our country. God bless the USA.

Another example of age, wisdom and maturity being mutually exclusive events, Thank you for your service!

Vandalizing someone's property between $200 and $1000 is a misdemeanor first degree in Florida. Penalty is up to $1000 fine and up to 1 year in prison.

If it's his first offense, he'd probably just have to pay the fine, no prison at all. Even if it wasn't his first offense, he'd get a commuted sentence, because this is Florida and they let wife beaters go free for more offense than ripping flags down off a flagpole.

I guess I can see getting mad and pulling some home owners pole over but they also just disrespected a US flag on Memorial day weekend. Some are really sick. As a disabled veteran I am ashamed and hurt that we have come to this point.:shocked:
Thank you for your service.
Sorry that you had to experience such a disgusting event.

So sorry this happened to you. Whether a Democratic or a Republican - we are all Americans and should be proud of the people who service and respectful of an elected president. There is no call or need for nastiness of this type and the person who did it should be ashamed!
